Sharon’s Senate Re-election Calls Spark Nevada GOP Divide
The Carson Appeal and Reno Gazette oppose William Sharon of California’s bid for U S Senate from Nevada. Favoring papers like Virginia Enterprise and Gold Hill News push his reappointment, while critics cite his absence in Washington, lack of lawmaking, and a $30 000 salary as proof of buying votes and discrediting Nevada. The Reno Gazette urges voters to demand valid reasons or back a better candidate.
